Oooh, the old "Steel Wheelchairs" gag. Haven't been hearing that one for the last 15 years or anything.

I saw them two years ago and they made the opening act (Black Rebel Moped Pals) look like the Muppet Babies. The Stones still kick ass.

carmody: The Stones still kick ass.

So I hear from everybody who goes to see them. Aren't jokes like this supposed to have a grain of truth in them?

The "grain of truth" is that yes, the Stones are getting to be a bunch of old guys. The fallacy is that they no longer put on a good rock show. Mick holds the crowd in the palm of his hand, and he's just as athletic now (or perhaps more so) as he was in Gimme Shelter.

Some people just like to talk shiat. It's human nature. If you like the Stones, I'd recommend heartily going to check them out when they come to your area. They can't go on forever...and I was glad to have the chance to see them.
